Re: [tool] Unix auditing, Lynis 1.2.5

quoted from man mount

Mount options for ext2
The 'ext2' file system is the standard Linux file system. Since Linux 2.5.46, for most mount options the
default is determined by the filesystem superblock. Set them with tune2fs(8).

acl / noacl
Support POSIX Access Control Lists (or not).

are you sure there has no "acl" option ?

filesystem ACL support detect is incorrect on CentOS/RHEL 5.x.

It doesn't include 'acl' option in /etc/fstab, but you can check it like
below:

----
# mount | grep '/ '
/dev/hda1 on / type ext3 (rw)

# tune2fs -l /dev/hda1 | grep -i acl
Default mount options: user_xattr acl
----

Best regards.
